What are you doing?

Looking at Jiu Ruo, who was still a full head taller than him even when lying down, Shushu was completely bewildered, not understanding what it was trying to do.

However, her doubts did not last long, as Jiu Ruo soon cleared them up for her.

"Shushu, can I acknowledge you as my boss? Don't worry, I can swear an oath that I will never betray you. If you tell me to go east, I will never go west."

After saying that, it really took the oath very seriously, looking like it was determined to follow the potato.

As for Shushu, seeing the light that fell so eagerly after Jiu Ruo finished making her vow, she knew that this meant the Heavenly Dao had recognized the vow, and she felt somewhat helpless.

After all, an oath certified by the Heavenly Dao means that if Jiu Ruo Ruo dares to break the oath in the future, no matter which world he is in, the Heavenly Dao can send him to the world of exile.

Honestly, at this moment, Shushu genuinely felt that Jiu Ruo was adorably silly. They had only saved her once on a whim, but she had given up her entire life for him.

"This is such a bad deal. I wonder if it will regret it when it grows up," Shushu thought to herself, feeling a bit lost about Jiu Ruo's arrangements.

Actually, after discovering that Jiu Ruo possessed the bloodline of a divine beast, Shu Shu planned to see if he could get it into the Liu Yue Sect. Even if he couldn't, he would arrange another place for it.

But Jiu Ruo had to cling to a powerful figure right from the start, so she couldn't just abandon the sheep, Shushu thought wistfully.

Compared to Shushu's headache, Lu Li was much calmer and immediately gave Shushu an idea.

"Junior Sister, you can keep it with you for now. Put it in your space and let Tianluo and the others help train it. Once it has gained some strength, you can let it stay with you."

And so, the problem that had been giving Shushu a headache was solved. This unexpected rescue of the beast ended with Shushu gaining a new follower.

After examining Jiu Ruo's injuries again and giving it the appropriate medicine, Shu Shu handed it over to Tian Luo, hoping that Tian Luo could teach Jiu Ruo to be more careful in the future.

At this moment, Shushu had no idea that because of her decision, Tianluo would create a second Tianluo.

Not only were they long-winded, but they also formed a swindling duo, bringing back a lot of strange and unusual creatures for her, turning her entire space into a garden of spirit beasts and plants.

This also led to Shushu getting a headache every time he saw these two guys together, and even wishing he could go back to today and not hand Jiu Ruo over to Tian Luo.

Unfortunately, the current Shushu is unaware of all this. After handing Jiu Ruo over to Tian Luo, Shushu took out a small spirit-gathering array and began to meditate and cultivate in peace.

Seeing this, Lu Li sat down cross-legged as well. Soon, only the sound of shallow breathing could be heard in the room, and there was no other sound.

On the day of the auction, the manager came to inform them that it was time to depart. Only then did the senior and junior disciples exit their cultivation state, use a few spells to prepare themselves, and then go to the front yard with the manager.

Several disciples who were preparing to go to the auction were already waiting in the front yard. When they saw Lu Li and his sister arrive, they greeted them and then boarded the beast-drawn carriage that had been prepared in advance and headed to the auction.

The auction house and the Liuyue Sect's outpost were not close, and it took them more than half an hour to travel by beast-drawn carriage to reach the entrance of the auction house.

Looking through the curtain of the beast-drawn carriage at the bustling crowd and the long queue to enter, Shushu felt that the situation was not much different from when he entered the Xunfeng Secret Realm.

Of course, as members of the four sects and with their own private rooms, they don't need to queue like these people. They have a separate entrance, and not many people use this entrance.

Therefore, their carriage was quickly brought into the auction, and there were even servants to lead the way, allowing them to go directly to the top-tier private box on the top floor without any hindrance.

Perhaps it was because he was too busy today, or perhaps he knew the habits of the Liuyue Sect, and in addition, Lu Li disguised himself as an ordinary disciple and did not stand out in the group.

Therefore, after leading everyone to the private room and serving them tea, snacks, and the auction catalog, the waiter withdrew and thoughtfully closed the door behind him.

As is customary, after verifying that there was nothing amiss in the private room, Lu Li activated the room's isolation array and added another layer of shield.

Shushu then poked her little head out, asking Lu Li to show her the catalog of today's auction items.

Lu Li always granted her every request. When he heard that she wanted to see the booklet, he took it from her without thinking and began to flip through the pages for her.

As he turned the pages, he told her that if she saw something she wanted, she should just ask, and he would take a picture of it for her later.

Unfortunately, despite being a wealthy rat, Shushu didn't find anything she liked after reading the book. Many of them were either things she already owned or of too low a quality for her to appreciate.

So, after looking through the auction list, the once enthusiastic Shushu couldn't help but feel a little disheartened and climbed back into Lu Li's clothes to prepare for bed.

Seeing this, Lu Li didn't say anything more, just patted her lightly and let her go on her own.

As a well-traveled and wealthy phoenix, Lu Li, like Shushu, didn't have anything that caught his eye for the time being. It wasn't that they were getting arrogant, but rather that their wealth was what it was.

The other Liuyue Sect disciples present were aware of their wealth and didn't pay much attention. After deciding what they wanted, they put down the booklet and waited for the auction to begin.

Perhaps because they arrived too early, the lights on the auction stage in the center of the auction hall didn't come on until most of the spiritual fruits and snacks on the table had been eaten.

Then a female cultivator in the late Golden Core stage, with a beautiful face and figure, stood on the auction stage and said a very official speech before the auction officially began.

The process was similar to other auctions, starting with a relatively valuable refining material as a warm-up for the auction.

The rest of the event was rather ordinary, and there were almost no bids in the top-floor VIP box; nine out of ten of the buyers were people sitting below.

It wasn't until the second half of the event, as the items became increasingly valuable, that the sounds of bidding could be heard sporadically from the top-floor boxes.

Before the second half was even halfway through, the other disciples of the Flowing Moon Sect who had come with Shushu and the others had already bid on everything they wanted and had become incredibly calm.

Just as everyone was watching the show with bated breath, waiting for the auction to end, the auctioneer on stage brought out a plate of vibrant water lilies.

As she removed the glass dome that isolated the air, Shushu, who had been sleeping inside Lu Li's clothes, suddenly opened her eyes and stared straight at the plate of water lotus.
